A Safe and Supportive Space for Your Wellbeing

Hello, my name is Ela, and I’m a trainee counsellor working under professional supervision as part of my counselling training. I offer a warm, compassionate, and confidential space where you can feel truly heard, understood, and accepted—just as you are.
My approach is person-centred and integrative, which means I tailor our work together to your individual needs, drawing on a range of therapeutic methods to support your emotional and psychological well-being. I work holistically, considering the connection between mind, body, and spirit, and I believe that healing takes place when we are seen and accepted in our wholeness.
My journey into counselling has been shaped by both my academic background and personal life experiences. I hold a bachelor’s degree in occupational therapy, as well as in public administration and agro-consulting. After going through various life transitions and challenges, I felt a strong calling to retrain as a counsellor—a journey of healing and meaning, not only for myself, but to support others along their own path.
These personal experiences have deepened my empathy and strengthened my commitment to creating a safe, non-judgemental, and respectful space where others can explore their thoughts, feelings, and experiences at their own pace.
I have a particular interest in holistic and humanistic approaches, including mind–body–spirit integration. I also explore practices such as mindfulness and energy work as part of my own ongoing personal and professional development. I am passionate about working with people from all walks of life, and I value inclusive, anti-discriminatory practice that honours each person’s identity and unique story.
As a trainee, I receive regular professional supervision and practise in accordance with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) Ethical Framework, which ensures my work remains ethical, safe, and reflective.
If you’re considering counselling, I understand that taking the first step can feel daunting. I’m here to walk alongside you—with care, curiosity, and respect. Thank you for taking the time to learn a little about me—I’d be honoured to support you on your journey.
